To use /canvas add <player> or /canvas remove <player> you need to be main author (the first who modified canvas) or have the canvas-copyright.add-author, canvas-copyright.remove-author permissions.
Also you can allow anybody to copy your canvas with /canvas to-public command. After transferring canvas to public domain it can also be crafted by crafter.
This mod uses fabric-permission-api.
To manage these permission, you can use LuckPerms or any other mod that can be used in this way.
